Match Threads Norwich vs Spurs - Match Thread

[Shadydan]

Why has Mourinho gone from 1 extreme to the other?

Away from home as well, WTF is he thinking?

Surely you start Dier with 2 CAM's?

Instead he starts 3 Cm's with how many minutes football between them?

Inexplicable.

Because SC called for it

 

[noiseboy55]

I still can’t believe their second was ruled out!

Should use it as a turning point!

 

[poc]

Great line ups.
Poor. Display.
HT lucky to be only 1nil down

Agreed love the lineup but it’s just not working out not sure if it’s formation, confidence or opposition style

 

[DJS]

Skipp on for Foyth please and back to a back four.

And never play a Foyth again please.

Need a few more ratings for the full set please people!

And Foyth concerns me, he’s rash and either giving away penalties or rash fouls around box. Doesn’t seem to learn.

 

[dagraham]

This midfield is technically excellent on paper, yet we can't string two passes together. Shows that the problems at our club run far deeper than tactics, formation or team selection.

Mentality. Time for the “nice” new Jose to disappear and start giving out some bollockings

 

[-Afri-Coy-]

Can’t believe Ndombele is getting slated for playing relatively well in his WORST position. He has never and will never be a DM, and that’s the job he’s been asked to do now. Only one out there that can get a foot in and pass the bloody ball.

Eriksen has been useless, get him off and get Dier on. Let Tanguy orchestrate our way out from the box to box position where he belongs.

 

[KingKay]

Its AVB levels of frustration watching this clueless shite.

People actually wanted Poch out in favour of this shit.

 

[yiddopaul]

Mate, I've not been impressed with GLC and Sess.
Ndombele OK but nothing great

Flippin 'eck. Give them a break, they have virtually no time playing this year, never played together before.

 

[Haddock]

Considering the new signings and the make shift line up it's expected that we aren't looking the sharpest. But as usual it's the lacklustre effort and defensive errors that are our downfall.

Also, Dele looks off. His form is comically jojo-like. I've seen some bad spells from Aurier but I believe these 45 minutes are the worst I've ever seen. Constantly drifting all over the place, providing absolutely nothing in defence and probably even less in attack.

If Dier was playing we would have given the ball away MORE.

 

[doctor stefan Freud]

Three at the back is a disaster. We really need a proper DM, or failing that a decent right and left back. I don’t care so much about trying to fit Lo Celso and Eriksen into the same team, Eriksen is fucking off soon anyway so I’d happily play a climatising player than the Dane.
But if we don’t buy either a decent CDM or two good fullbacks in January, we’re in a dog fight for the top six

 

[ardiles]

Every time we get a chance to go 4th, we screw it up.

 

[paulcumpstone]

Mourinho has had a good month now but we dont look any better, we dont look organised and tactically it's a mess, if he is serious about taking his time to look at the squad how much longer does he really need to see we need a holding midfielder and 2 full backs, also alli is no more than a squad player, can be dynamite when hes up for it but that isnt often enough

 

[littlemandefoe]

I am here to complain again, sorry people.

We are so bad to watch, when was the last time we played a match and dominated from the off? We have NO intensity in our play, it's SO slow. It is the same old story every week now.

I'm so fed up of watching the same old stuff, I genuinely don't know what to say. I keep hoping one of you will have something magic to say and make it all better.

Aurier is a clown. When he gets the ball on the right wing, he stops play. When he gets in a position, his crosses are dreadful. He is such a shit player.

Vertonghen down the left wont offer that bombarding run any other left back would/should do. I love Jan but it's getting to a point now where he probably should look at other alternatives or perhaps get use to the bench.

We don't deserve anything here, just like we didn't at United, against Chelsea and against Brighton.

I don't what you guys are all expecting, just because Mourinho has won things at all the other clubs, means no guarantee its gonna happen with us. I am not writing him off but we have serious problems, here. Nobody can say anything else, its evident.

 

[Hoddle&Waddle]

I'm going to say it, Dele is a good finisher but the rest of his game is utter shit.

 

[Johnny J]

Maybe if he didn't think it he wouldn't do the 1 thing every 2 games that's better than anyone else.

One great thing every two games doesn't offset the rest of his (poor) game.

Oh fuck right off, you cannot put this on the manager. You were all pissing and moaning last time because he left the so called ballers on the bench and now he starts them he's still to blame, sorry but I ain't having that. Its bollocks.

 

[Oh Teddy Teddy]

He's tired. He's not a machine. He ran a lot against Brighton. He had a day to recover. He's tired.

unlike Norwich

 

[glacierSpurs]

Need a backup striker fucking badly. Will do Kane a whole lot of good to have rest in between some games unless he regains his hunger. Our forward play, press and bullying of the defenders are purely non-existent.

 

[shoggy33]

Do our lot smoke weed before games? They are just so lethargic it's untrue. The new guys have been pretty dreadful, although Ndombele has had one or 2 moments. That half was as bad as any of the shit we have served up this season, and we have served up a lot of shit. We aren't even troubling the team who are bottom of the league. Pathetic. I'd get Moura on to inject a bit of energy, probably for Sessengon who looks lost.
